Answer 1

It would help to tell us if your goofy or regular? My friend couldnt do ollies and he was a big guy. I told him to lift up his other leg as high as your first leg. Try to pretend like the board isnt there and he did it. Try doing ollies on the grass

Answer 2

The problem most people have with learning to ollie is that people try to explain it in like 4 steps when there really needs to be a lot more so here’s how to ollie In as much detail as I can possibly explain it in.

1. Stand on your skateboard in a comfortable stance, and try to memorize absolutely every single word I say from now on.

2. Move you front foot behind the front bolts (farther back the higher potential of the Ollie but will be harder to control.)

3. Point your front foot forward slightly. Just enough so it’s in a comfortable position but no more

4. Your back foot should be on the tip of the tail also in a comfortable position. The edge of your shoe should be rite at the edge of the tail, try to line your foot up with the curve of the tail. (Same thing as with ur front foot: the farther back the higher potential, but harder to control.

5. Shift most of your weight to your back foot while keeping the board completely stable.

6. Now bend down low for a bit, and then jump up mainly off of your back foot. As you jump, your back foot should push the tail down hard.

7. The tail should hit the ground hard causing it to bounce back up (this is called a pop) make the pop strong, hard, and fast. Done correctly the board will already be in the air. If its not then your not gonna get in the air at all.

8. Your feet should be in the air just above the board. With the board at a 65-85° angle to the ground and now about a 1/2-1inch in the air from the pop alone

9. Now to get height, roll your front foot onto its side a bit so that the side of the sole of your shoe (not the whole side of your shoe, just the sole) is in contact with the grip tape and slide it forward up to the front bolts. (This will add height and even out the board at the same time)

10. While keeping your shoulders and your body straight while still in the air, bring both your knees up, best if they’re all the way up to your chest (but not that high to start with). This will give the board room to come up without ur feet stopping it halfway through.

11. Lean forward just a bit throughout the Ollie to keep from landing it in a manual.

12. After the skateboard reaches the peak of the ollie, start to straighten your legs abit to bring the board down (this should come naturally after practice but you should start getting use to it now)

13. As soon as the board comes down bend ur knees to absorb the impact of that landing and to keep balanced.

14. Try to land with ur feet directly over both sets of bolts; this will be more balanced and less likely to snap the board.

15. Practice

Skating is all about practice, and commitment. It will take time u will not land it rite away

The key is to take all these steps and combined them into one smooth motion.

Answer 4

If your right foot is coming off, it is probably because you are scared of landing incase you fall.

Try them on the grass where you know you won't fall.

When I was skatingI was the same with Kick Flips, my right foot just wouldn't go on.

Keep that foot above the deck and don't let it come away from it
